How to schedule a job from r3 to BI daily ?

Question

Please let me know how to schedule a job frm bi to r3, that is i want to load data from a sd ds to a sd cube in bi. I do not want to use a PC and can i schedule a job daily without a PC, which can run daily after 10pm ,remember its not a manual schedule. Do we have any option to schedule in hourly, weekly, daily from bi to r3. If yes HOW ? i know we can do it thru infopackage group but will the infopackage group accept if its only a single load....I think it should have multiple infopackage rite to add it to a group or can it b a single job as well.

Answer 1

An infopackage group can only run infopackages, and unfortunately, you will need an ABAP program to trigger the event in R/3.  There is plenty of ABAP code in this forum to show you exactly how to do this. 
Try this:
Triggering a Process Chain From R/3 pgm
R/3 Jobs Triggering  BW job
You can also review OSS Note 135637.  This note will show from R/3 to BI (BW).  But you can reverse the logic to go from BI to R/3.
Hope this helps.
My suggestion would be to replace the infopackage group with a process chain, because you can call an ABAP program from a process chain.  You also have many more processes at your disposal using process chains.
